Definitions
- the present invention relates to a manipulator and, more particularly, to a medical manipulator of a simple mechanism excellent in operability.
- some small holes 151 , 152 and 153 are formed in the abdomen of a patient 150 and tubes 154 are inserted in the holes 151 , 152 and 153 .
- An endoscope 161 and forcepts 171 and 172 are inserted through the tubes 154 in the abdomen.
- An operator 160 i.e., a surgeon, performs a surgical operation observing images taken by the endoscope 161 and displayed by a monitor 162 .
- Such an operative method does not need laparotomy and reduces physical burden on the patient and reduces greatly the number of days necessary for the patient to recover and to leave the hospital after the operation.
- the forcepts 171 and 172 are provided with only grippers capable of opening and closing, it is difficult to change the attitude of the grippers freely and hence the forcepts 171 and 172 are poorly operable. Accordingly, only skilled operators are able to perform the foregoing operative method properly. It takes a very long time for operators to attain proficiency in the operative method using the endoscope.
- the remote-controlled robot is a robot system including a master arm to be operated by an operator, and a slave arm to act on a diseased part.
- the master arm and the slave arm are completely separated. Electric signals representing commands provided by operating the master arm are given to the slave arm.
- the master arm and the slave arm are articulated arms having at least six degrees of freedom of motion.
- the master/slave manipulator is provided with controllers for controlling slave arms for operations in six degrees of freedom of motion and is a complicated system including many electric control systems, many parts and many wiring lines. Because of its complexity, the reliability of operations of the master/slave manipulator is not on a satisfactorily high level.
- the master/slave manipulator is a large-scale system, expensive and needs a high maintenance cost.
- the operator operates the master/slave manipulator at a position remote from the patient and hence the operator is unable to give medical treatment quickly to the patient in an emergency.
- this previously proposed medical manipulator includes an operation command unit 20 including a attitude adjusting unit 23 and an end effector control unit 24 , a connecting unit 30 having one end connected to the operation command unit 20 , a working unit 10 connected to the other end of the connecting unit 30 and provided with an end effector 14 and support units 15 and 16 supporting the end effector 14 for operations in at least two degrees of freedom of motion, and a controller, not shown, capable of transmitting an operation command provided by the attitude adjusting unit 23 to the support units 15 and 16 to adjust the attitude of the end effector 14 and of transmitting an operation command provided by the end effector control unit 24 to the end effector 14 to operate the end effector 14 .
- the support units 15 and 16 have a pitching shaft and a yawing shaft, respectively, and the end effector 14 is a grip
- the end effector 14 grips a curved suture needle 180 threaded with a thread 181 , sticks the suture needle 180 into a part to be sutured and moves the curved suture needle 180 along a circular path. Since required operations and the degree of freedom of motion are not properly coordinated in the known medical manipulator shown in FIG. 26 , the operation command unit 20 is unable to operate smoothly for operations in directions intended by the operator. Thus, the operability of the known medical manipulator is unsatisfactory.
- the degree of freedom of motion of the end effector 14 is reduced, the end effector 14 is set in a singular attitude and the operability of the end effector 14 in particular directions becomes unsatisfactory. Moreover the gripping force of the end effector 14 is insufficient.
- the present invention has been made in view of the aforesaid problems in the conventional medical manipulators and it is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a manipulator having simple construction and high reliability and excellent in operability.
- a manipulator includes an operation command unit provided with a attitude adjusting unit and an end effector control unit, a connecting unit having one end connected to the operation command unit, a working unit connected to the other end of the connecting unit and provided with an end effector and a support unit supporting the end effector for motions in at least two degrees of freedom of motion, and a control unit that transmits an operation command provided by the attitude adjusting unit to the support unit to adjust the attitude of the end effector and transmits an operation command provided by the end effector control unit to the end effector to operate the end effector;
- the support unit includes a first joint capable of turning about a first axis perpendicular to the center axis of the connecting unit, and a second joint capable of turning about a second axis perpendicular to the first axis
- the end effector has a center axis substantially parallel to the second axis
- the attitude adjusting unit includes a third joint capable of turning about a third axis perpendicular to the
- the end effector has two working joints mounted on the second joint, the two working joints being capable of turning about the second axis, the two working joints are rotated in the same direction to rotate the second joint, and the two working joints are rotated in opposite directions, respectively, to drive the end effector for gripping and releasing actions.
- two working links are supported on the two working joints, respectively, and capable of turning about axes in directions parallel to and in directions perpendicular to the axis of the two working joints, and the working links are rotatably joined together.
- the manipulator according to the present invention may further include a sensor capable of measuring force acting in a direction perpendicular to the axes of the third and fourth joint and included in the operation command unit; and an actuator combined with the connecting unit and capable of applying a torque to the connecting unit to urge the connecting unit to turn about its axis; wherein the actuator is controlled on the basis of a value measured by the sensor.
- the sign of the torque produced by the actuator may be controlled on the basis of the relation between the sign of an angle indicating the angular position of the third joint and that of the value measured by the sensor.
- the torque produced by the actuator may be controlled to vary in proportion to the value measured by the sensor.
- a working unit provided with an end effector and a support unit supporting the end effector for motions in at least two degrees of freedom of motion; wherein the support unit includes a first joint capable of turning about a first axis, and a second joint capable of turning about a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, wherein the working unit has two working joints mounted on the second joint, the two working joints being capable of turning about the second axis, the two working joints are rotated in the same direction to rotate the second joint, and the two working joints are rotated in opposite directions, respectively, to drive the end effector for gripping and releasing actions.
- two working links are supported on the two working joints, respectively, and capable of turning about axes in directions parallel to and in directions perpendicular to the axes of the two working joints, and the working links are rotatably joined together.
- the support unit is capable of supporting the end effector for motions in at least two degrees of freedom of motion, and the operation command unit and the working unit are connected mechanically by the connecting unit. Therefore, satisfactory operability and high reliability, which are the features of the manipulator previously proposed in Jpn. Pat. App. No. Hei 11-165961, are not spoiled. Since the actual actions of the operator, such as operator's actions for moving a curved suture needle for suturing, and the motions of the manipulator are identical, the operation command unit can be smoothly moved in a direction desired by the operator. Thus, the manipulator is excellent in operability.

- FIGS. 2 and 3 are skeleton drawings of the medical manipulator 1 shown in FIG. 1 of assistance in explaining the degree of freedom of motion and operations of the medical manipulator 1 .
- the medical manipulator 1 has a working unit 10 , an operation command unit 20 , and a connecting unit 30 having opposite ends connected to the working unit 10 and the operation command unit 20 .
- the working unit 10 has a support unit and an end effector.
- the support unit includes a first joint 11 having a first rotation axis perpendicular to the center axis 31 of the connecting unit 30 and a second joint 12 having a second rotation axis perpendicular to the first rotation axis of the first joint 11 .
- a gripper 14 included in the end effector and capable of performing gripping/releasing actions 13 has a center axis substantially parallel to the second rotation axis of the second joint 12 .
- the working unit 10 has a pitching-axis joint 15 and a rolling-axis joint 16 supporting the gripper 14 for motions in two degrees of freedom of motion.
- the operation command unit 20 has attitude adjusting unit 23 including a third joint 21 having a third rotation axis perpendicular to the center axis 31 of the connecting unit 30 and a fourth joint 22 having a fourth rotation axis perpendicular to the third rotation axis of the third joint 21 , and an end effector control unit 24 .
- the end effector control unit 24 is formed such that directions 201 a and 202 a ( FIG. 28 ) in which the fingers of an operator grasping the end effector control unit 24 extend are substantially parallel to the fourth axis 22 a of the fourth joint 22 .
- control action 25 The gripping/releasing action 13 of the gripper 14 is caused by a control action indicated by the arrow 25 (hereinafter referred to as “control action 25 ”) of the end effector control unit 24 , which will be described in detail later with reference to FIGS. 7 to 10 and 28 .
- the center axis 31 of the connecting unit 30 , the first axis of the first joint 11 and the second axis of the second joint 12 intersect each other at a single point
- the center axis 31 of the connecting unit 30 , the third axis of the third joint 21 and the fourth axis of the fourth joint 22 intersect each other at a single point.
- the gripper 14 revolves along a circular path of an excessively great radius if the offset of the gripper 14 is excessively great. If the offset of the attitude adjusting unit 23 is great, a torque that cause attitude adjustment acts on the attitude adjusting unit 23 when position adjustment is necessary.
- Angle sensors such as encoders or potentiometers, are incorporated into the operation command unit 20 to measure angles of turning of the third joint 21 and the fourth joint 22 .
- An action sensor such as an angle sensor or a switch, is incorporated into the end effector control unit 24 to measure control actions performed by the operator to operate the end effector 14 .
- the sensors sends signals representing commands 41 provided by the attitude control unit 20 to a controller 40 .
- the controller 40 executes predetermined calculations on the basis of the input commands 41 to drive and control the first joint 11 , the second joint 12 and the gripper 14 .
- the gripper 14 can be directly operated for position adjustment because the connecting unit 30 connects the working unit 10 and the operation command unit 20 .
- the connecting unit 30 as a rolling shaft, the first joint 11 as a pitching shaft and the second joint 12 as a rolling shaft enable the gripper 14 to move for motions in three degrees of freedom of motion and hence the gripper 14 can be set in an optional attitude.
- the connecting unit 30 as a rolling shaft, the third joint 21 as a pitching shaft and the fourth joint 22 as a rolling shaft enable the end effector control unit 24 to move for motions in three degrees of freedom of motion and hence the end effector control unit 24 can be set in an optional attitude.
- the use of the connecting unit 30 as a common rolling shaft reduces the cost of the medical manipulator 1 .
- An ordinary manipulator has a problem relating to calculation and a problem that a specific shaft moves extraordinarily rapidly when the gripper 14 is set in a singular attitude. Since the working unit 10 and the end effector control unit 20 of the medical manipulator 1 of the present invention have the same construction, the medical manipulator 1 of the present invention is free from such problems.
- a driving unit 10m including, for example, motors and reduction gears for driving the first joint 11 and the second joint 12 for turning and driving the gripper 14 for the gripping/releasing actions 13 is disposed at a position on the connecting unit 30 near the operation command unit 20 .
- the first joint 11 and the second joint 12 of the working unit 10 are turned and the gripper 14 of the working unit 10 is driven for the gripping/releasing actins by the driving power of driving devices 11 m, 12 m and 13 m included in the driving unit 10 m.
- An articulated mechanism including the first joint 11 and the second joint 12 of support unit of the working unit 10 and an articulated mechanism including the third joint 21 and the fourth joint 22 of the attitude adjusting unit 23 are identical. Therefore, the first joint 11 turns through an angle by which the third joint 21 is turned, and the second joint 12 turns through an angle by which the fourth joint 22 is turned. For example, when the operator turns the third joint 21 for attitude adjustment as shown in FIG. 3 , the first joint 11 of the working unit 10 turns accordingly.
- the degrees of freedom of motion of the working unit 10 and the operation command unit 20 of the medical manipulator are designed such that the gripper 14 moves in the same direction as that in which the operator moves the operation command unit 20 for manipulating, for example, a curved needle for suture as shown in FIG. 27 .
- the operator operates the operation command unit 20 to move the end effector 14 griping a curved suture needle so that the curved needle is stuck into a part to be sutured and the curved suture needle moves along a circular path.
- the circular movement of the curved needle coincides substantially with the turning motion of the fourth joint 22 , and the third joint 21 and the connecting unit 30 do not need to be turned through large angles.
- the curved needle can be easily manipulated.
- the conventional manipulator carries out the same operations for manipulating the curved needle by combined motions of the motions in two degrees of freedom of motion of the end effector and the turning motion of the connecting unit.
- it is very difficult to manipulate the curved needle by the conventional manipulator for movement along the circular path intended by the operator.
- any support structure is unnecessary if the medical manipulator 1 is very lightweight. If the medical manipulator 1 is so heavy that the operator has difficulty in supporting the medical manipulator 1 for a long time or if the medical manipulator 1 needs a holding brake mechanism and a weight compensating mechanism for compensating its own weight, the medical manipulator 1 may be supported on a support mechanism 100 as indicated by broken lines in FIG. 1 .
- the medical manipulator 1 is supported for turning motions about two axes on a virtual rotation center 110 (fixed point) and for uniaxial linear motions (motions in a polar coordinate system).
- the support mechanism 100 includes a base, a position adjusting mechanism 101 capable of vertically moving relative to the base, a rotary unit 102 supported on a lower part of the position adjusting mechanism 101 so as to be turnable in a horizontal plane about a vertical axis, and a circular arm 103 having one end connected to the outer circumference of the rotary unit 102 .
- the turning axis of the rotary unit 102 intersects the virtual rotation center 110 on the center axis 31 of the connecting unit 30 .
- a connecting member 104 connects the other end of the circular arm 103 to the connecting unit 30 .
- the connecting member 104 is able to move along a circular path on the circular arm 103 .
- the connecting unit 30 is extended through the connecting member 104 so as to be linearly movable along the center axis 31 .
- FIGS. 4 to 6 show grippers 14 that can be applied to the end effector of the working unit 10 of the medical manipulator 1 in the first embodiment.
- FIG. 4 shows a gripper 14 having griping members capable of being moved like scissors blades for gripping/releasing actions 13
- FIG. 5 shows a gripper 14 having gripping members capable of being moved toward and away from each other for gripping/releasing
- FIG. 6 shows a gripper 14 dislocated with respect to the axis of the second joint 12 .
- the gripper 14 may be set in any suitable disposition other than those shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 , provided that the center axis thereof is substantially parallel to the axis of the second joint 12 .
- FIGS. 7 to 10 show the mechanisms of operation command units 20 , particularly, end effector control units 24 which may be employed in the medical manipulator 1 in the first embodiment.
- the end effector control unit 24 shown in FIG. 7 provides commands for operating the gripper 14 for gripping/releasing actions when a finger-operated control unit 26 is operated for gripping/releasing actions 25 .
- the finger-operated control unit 26 is provided with two finger holders 26 a and 26 b for receiving the operator's thumb, and the operator's index and middle fingers, respectively. At least either the finger holder 26 a or the finger holder 26 b is supported pivotally on a support member 27 so that the distance between the finger holders 26 a and 26 b can be optionally changed. When the distance between the finger holders 26 a and 26 b is changed, the distance between the gripping bars of the gripper 14 changes accordingly.
- the angle between the finger holders 26 a and 26 b may be measured and the angle between the gripping bars of the gripper 14 may be adjusted according to the angle between the finger holders 26 a and 26 b .
- the gripping and the releasing positions of the finger holders 26 a and 26 b may be detected and the gripping bars of the gripper 14 may be set at gripping positions or releasing positions.
- the end effector control unit 24 shown in FIG. 8 is provided with a support member 27 having a handle part 27 b .
- the operator grips the handle part 27 b with the middle or the little finger to operate the end effector control unit stably.
- the end effector control unit 24 may be provided with the finger-operated control unit 26 , a resilient means capable of exerting a resilient releasing force or a locking mechanism for locking the end effector control unit 24 in a gripping state.
- the end effector control unit 24 shown in FIG. 9 is provided with a handle 29 and a switch 28 disposed near the handle 29 .
- the operator grips the handle 29 and operates the switch 28 to provide commands to drive the gripper 14 for the gripping/releasing actions 13 . If the gripper 14 needs to be driven only for gripping and releasing, the simple end effector control unit 24 shown in FIG. 9 can be employed
- the end effector control unit 24 shown in FIG. 10 is provided with parallel finger holders 26 a and 26 b capable of being moved toward and away from each other.
- FIG. 28 is a perspective view of assistance in explaining the operation of the end effector control unit 24 shown in FIG. 1 by the operator's hand 200 .
- the operator's thumb 201 is inserted in a finger holder 26 a
- the operator's forefinger 202 and/or middle finger 203 are inserted in a finger holder 26 b .
- the longitudinal axis 201 a of the thumb 201 , the longitudinal axis 202 a of the forefinger 202 and the longitudinal axis 203 a of the middle finger 203 are substantially parallel to the axis 22 a of the fourth joint 22 as shown in FIG. 28 .

- Pulleys 12 p and 13 p are supported on the rotating member 50 for rotation relative to the rotating member 50 .
- Bevel gears (or face gears) 51 a and 52 a are fixedly combined with the pulleys 12 p and 13 p , respectively.
- the bevel gears 51 a and 52 a are engaged with bevel gears 51 b and 52 b , respectively.
- the driving forces of the driving devices 12 m and 13 m ( FIG. 1 ) are transmitted to the pulleys 12 p and 13 p by wires 12 w and 13 w , respectively. Consequently, the bevel gears 51 b and 52 b are rotated.
- the bevel gears 51 b and 52 b are supported on the second joint 12 for rotation about an axis perpendicular to the axis of the first joint 11 supporting the rotating member 50 .
- Two shafts 12 a and 12 b are mounted on the shaft 12 .
- Gripping bars 14 a and 14 b are fixedly connected to the bevel gears 51 b and 52 b by connecting members 53 and 54 , respectively, so that the center axes thereof are substantially parallel to the axis of the second joint 12 .
- the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b can be individually driven by the driving devices 12 m and 13 m , respectively.
- the gripper 14 can be turned for rolling.
- the gripper 14 can be driven for gripping/releasing operations.
- the driving actins of the driving devices 12 m and 13 m can be easily determined taking into consideration power transmitting methods by which the driving forces of the driving device 12 m and 13 m are transmitted.
- FIGS. 13 and 14 The working unit 10 shown in FIGS. 13 and 14 will be described.
- Middle parts of a pair of gripping bars 14 a and 14 b are pivotally joined together by a pivot 57 .
- Lower end parts of the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b are connected to shafts 12 a and 12 b so as to be turnable about axes 55 a and 55 b parallel to the axes of the shafts 12 a and 12 b and about axes 56 a and 56 b perpendicular to the axes 55 a and 55 b , respectively.
- Driving devices 12 m and 13 m respectively, drives the gripping bars.
- the shafts 12 a and 12 b are turned in the same direction to turn the second joint 12 for the rolling motion of a gripper 14 .
- the shafts 12 a and 12 b are turned in opposite directions, respectively, to drive the gripper 14 for gripping/releasing actions.
- the movement of the lower ends of the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b can be multiplied by increasing the length of front parts of the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b extending forward beyond the middle parts pivotally joined together by the pivot 57 .
- FIGS. 15 and 16 The working unit 10 shown in FIGS. 15 and 16 will be described. Turning directions of front parts of gripping bars 14 a and 14 b of a gripper 14 , extending forward from middle parts of the same pivotally joined together of the working unit 10 shown in FIGS. 15 and 16 relative to those of back parts of the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b extending backward from the middle parts of the same are opposite to those of the front parts of the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b of the working unit 10 shown in FIGS. 13 and 14 .

- the gripper 14 Since the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b are linked to form a toggle mechanism, the gripper 14 is able to exert a very large gripping force when the difference in angular position between the connecting members 53 and 54 is around 180°. Such a very large gripping force is available because a direction in which the gripper 14 is opened is nearly perpendicular to a direction in which the lower ends of the gripping bars 14 a and 14 b are moved, and a force to open the gripper 14 is born by a structure instead of by a driving direction.
- This working unit 10 is suitable for firmly gripping a fine suture needle.

- FIGS. 17 and 18 show other methods.
- a method illustrated in FIG. 17 uses only wires and pulleys.
- the first joint 11 , and the shafts 12 a and 12 b are driven through wires 1 w , 12 w and 13 w , respectively.

- a gear transmission mechanism may be used without any restriction instead of the belt-and-pulley transmission mechanism.
- a controller 40 controls the driving device 61 on the basis of measured data provided by the sensor 60 .
- the driving device 61 When the medical manipulator is in a state shown in FIG. 20 and an operator operates the end effector control unit to turn the axis of the third joint 21 in a positive direction 120 , the driving device 61 is controlled so as to apply a positive torque to the connecting unit 30 to urge the connecting unit 30 to turn in a positive direction 121 . If the end effector control unit is operated to turn the axis of the third joint 21 in a negative direction opposite the positive direction 120 , the sensor 60 detects a negative bending stress. In this state, the driving device 61 is controlled to apply a negative torque to the connecting unit 30 to urge the connecting unit 30 to turn in a negative direction opposite the positive direction 121 .
- the sensor 60 detects a positive bending stress and the driving device 61 is controlled so as to apply a negative torque to the connecting unit 30 to urge the connecting unit 30 to turn in a negative direction 123 . If the end effector control unit is operated to turn the axis of the third joint 21 in a negative direction opposite the positive direction 122 , the sensor 60 detects a negative bending stress. In this state, the driving device 61 is controlled to apply a positive torque to the connecting unit 30 to urge the connecting unit 30 to turn in a positive direction opposite the negative direction 123 .
- a direction in which the driving device 61 turns the connecting unit 30 is determined on the basis of the direction of the bending stress and the direction of the axis of the third joint 21 of the attitude adjusting unit 23 . If the third joint 21 is in a neutral attitude (singular attitude), the connecting unit 30 may be turned in either of the opposite directions. In such a case, the connecting unit 30 is tuned in a predetermined direction or may be turned in a direction in which the connecting unit 30 has been recently turned to turn the connecting unit 30 continuously.
- the torque may be exerted on the connecting unit 30 only when the direction of the axis of the third joint 21 is in a predetermined angular range around a neutral direction, such as in an angular range of ⁇ 10° with respect to the neutral direction.
- the working unit 20 does not move suddenly because the working unit 10 and the operation command unit 20 are the same in structural configuration and the degree of freedom of motion, and the attitude of the working unit 10 is analogous with an attitude of the operation command unit 20 set by the operator.
- the driving device 61 may be used as an actuator for compensating a torque about the center axis 31 of the connecting unit 30 produced by the weight of the medical manipulator.
- the torque about the center axis 31 produced by the weight of the medical manipulator can be easily calculated with reference to the attitudes of the shafts of the medical manipulator and the torque can be easily compensated.
- FIG. 23 is a view of assistance in explaining a method of applying a torque about the center axis 31 of the connecting unit 30 to the connecting unit 30 .
